Christians forgive themselves

[ronedee]

And I'm saying that you aren't being persecuted: as you showed, persecution is being discriminated against or abused based on your religion alone. You aren't; you're being treated with hostility in a conversation about religion, but the reason that it's happening has nothing to do with the fact that you're a catholic. It's because you're being smug.


Neither are you.

It's really not about me. Its about what I stand for. And my goal is to educate atheists about the "real people" of God. Atheists say they know "all" about the people of God. But, that is a false statement.

Oh, I disagree: we'd still be talking, we'd just be doing so on the basis of evidence and the promise of future investigations, not the presuppositions of people making claims they don't intend to provide evidence for, like religions do.

Well... the ax swings both ways on the evidence front. If you think about it, "we" only know what we are told. It's a jungle of disinformation out there. And we are a nation of skeptics. that we can agree on.. I think!

What's that got to do with me?

forget it! Your off the hook due to exhaustion.

You can't prove that the universe was created, and until you do, you don't actually have a correct belief about it.

umm.... neither do you have proof that it wasn't created! But, there was a beginning because time exists. Right?

The whole problem is that you insist on having answers, whether or not there are any to have. I can't do anything about that.

There is always an answer! But, is it the "right" answer?

No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong.
